| DirtyP2002 said: I agree with you. The point I don't get is the 16 GB model. Who wanted one of those? It is obvious Sony offers less with this model so they basically forced themselves to reduce the entry price. If the 160GB HDD is the only difference between these models, I don't get the point at all. How much is a 160 GB HDD for Sony these days? $20? $40? So they save $40 for this model and offer the console for $70 - $100 less. (from $249 --> $149 / $179) Maybe you are right and Sony is like: "Okay, we fucked up with the PS3, now let's see if we can at least make the best out of it for the PS4." But even that would be stupid IMO. I mean you are looking at a 500 Million USD - 750 Million USD investment with this price cut. I just can't believe such a company is blinded by their ego in such a crucial fincial situation. |
Id imagine they've noticed how well the 4GB 360 does and want a piece of that pie. It'll be a cheaper model for the more casual crowd and judging by the lineup for this Year, its certainly the target. Finally being able to break into that sub-$199 market with a new model and focus probably sounds brilliant to the higher ups.
